Religious

An Italian nun, Mary of the Passion Tarallo lived a deep union with the crucified and Eucharistic Christ in the simplest works of the convent.

Biography

After being widowed from a civil marriage that was never consummated, she was finally able to follow the religious vocation that her father had opposed. She joined the Crucified Sisters Adorers of the Eucharist and served as a trainer, cook, porter, and person in charge of preparing the hosts. His constant prayer, humility and charity made an externally hidden life fruitful.

Practical advice
